I know so many people who needed this song right now, thank you for putting this out there. Few understand how 1 song, one short convo, one short interaction can change an individual trapped in darkness trajectory.
@@jericho1-4 just like how it did to me. Thanks guys so much
@@somethingrandom08 Your demons and he'll may differ from what others go through, know that you are not alone. Know that you mean something, that you are loved, even if everyone you know gives up on you that you can not give up on yourself. You are not a failure, you are not worthless, you are not the evil, despair, loneliness, heartbreak/ache, depression or hell that you get trapped in and have to fight your way out of. Few understand what it takes to fight such a battle and have little compassion or humanity for those who do. I like many did irreparable damage to myself, loved ones and friends as a lost soul trapped in my own hell. None of them understood the strength and determination it took to fight my way out. All I can do is offer an apology and move on, do not get stuck on who you were, let not your past or what those who knew you define your future. Stay strong and when the darkness creeps in look to whatever gives you motivation be it music a book a person or your past struggles to keep fighting. Come back here and I WIL light your darkness and pull you off the edge that you face, you do not need to face it alone friend.
@@jericho1-4 thank you so much for the kind words you have no idea how much that means to me. I don’t know how to rlly respond, I struggle with autism and expressing emotions is hard but do know that I seriously appreciate it. Keep spreading the love and I will as well
@@somethingrandom08 You are a diamond in the rough my friend, people often do not understand those on the spectrum. You have a very unique experience and see things in a much simpler yet very complex way. Some of the most intelligent individuals in history were/are on the spectrum, and held answers to incredibly complex equations, problems and issues throughout humankind's existence. Those who belittle you and others do so cause they lack you intelligence, intellect and potential. They fear that more than they do their own failures, and to self validate they attack that which they fear most you instead of themselves. Something you have already done and resolved. You are not the problem but the evolutionary answer to everything wrong with humanity.
"I'm so proud of you for getting this far" really hits hard. These small sentences in the middle of a song just touch my heart
Appreciate you Jasmin 🫀
It does I didn’t think I would make it this far I don’t know what I’m supposed to do with my life
@@whitneyjames7885 Same, but I found that being a firefighter is the only thing that I want to be, so I’m living for it. You’ll find yourself too, I promise you. Just stay strong and keep talking, your time will come. 💖🙏🏼💪🏼
@@whitneyjames7885 pray and ask God if he would revile what you are on earth for!!!!!
@@lacadmin2844 What if, like me, you don't believe in God? I did believe when I was younger, but stopped believing now.
I don’t leave comments often, but hearing “I’m so proud of you for getting this far” made me tear up and start crying, I’m one of the people my friends always goes to for support but I rarely reach out for myself, I’m always okay, always fine, they never burden me but I burden myself. Hearing it in words, someone being proud of me for getting this far, it just made me cry and i needed to cry like this today. It’s been so hard recently, but hearing this song? I really needed it, thank you so much.
know that place, have been walking around in there for years, still am that person, don't care what happens to myself, just knowing I could make someone forget their problems even if it's just for 5 minutes that's enough for me to keep going...
We're not alone, and it's a reason to live,
alwees good to be ther for the ones u love dont forget that !
I feel your words in my soul. It’s true. I’ve always been there for others and gave nothing for myself. It today especially it hurts so much….
You’re not alone. Also my first comment I started this channel with a vision and pushed it all back down and I’ve just been listening to music and wondering how to help if there’s so many like us, clearly the help out there isn’t working. Just know you’re not alone and you matter.
@@thebrokenfather-aspacefors2642 in the Netherlands a large problem is the specialization and hyperfocus of care, a lot of multifaceted problems end up in a circle of "you need to fix this first" which means you'd be spending months if not years on waiting lists and still not getting what you need
I don't live, I merely exist. And it's harder every single day. No one should be in this much pain, physically and mentally. I can no longer fake the smile as I did in my profile photo.
I feel the same exact way thinking maybe tomorrow it will start to get better but it doesn't. I have major depression & fibromyalgia I'm 48 it's not getting any better. Alone in a world so cold. Your still here I'm still here there must be a reason.
You're not alone , cant even put on a fake smile any longer . Your words " I don't live , I merely exist " hit hard since Im going through the same thing . My ex narcissist ( i did not know at the time she was one ) cheated on my while i was in cancer surgery....then send me a photo of the guy in bed with her while i still was at the hospital, just to hurt me as much as possible... Its been 2 years , then I met someone who I bealived was the " one " finally ....someone i trusted to open up for after all that ...but she just used me as a rebound because I was " I nice guy with deep feelings that listen to her " when she had some fun with me even though she said her feelings were true for me ... she went back to her ex like nothing ever happened between us ...my soul is lost , my heart is ....non existing...people just use you ...the pain you described I hear you my friend .... somethings others don't just understand if the have not been there themselves,that kind of pain words cant describe. My thoughts goes out to you and to everyone fealing this way because of different reasons, you are not alone . To you and everyone else , stay strong , you " WE" are not alone ❤️
I feel the same it has to be more than anxiety & depression I feel for me ive been tested for adhd not that testing for autism next as I don't make friends and often alone and wonder why we are here what's the purpose of it ask
It happens barely eaten barely slept but the song really dose hit hard it's a little bit of a hope raiser
I'm so sorry.
I've been there. Too many times. I'm sorry for you and everyone else going through this shit. It's fucking hard to live when your brain tells you to die. But I'm here 12 years after my last attempt and honestly life *did* get better it's a fucking cliche. I know. But if I'd succeeded all those years ago I'd have missed out on so much love. I hope it gets better for you, you are worthy and you matter. 💜
Its sad when a band understands you more then the people you love the most 😭
Stay strong, you are precious! ❤
🤝 I've been through the ringer in life! I believe in you to keep fighting my friend. Keep strong! 💪 Please, never ever think you'll be missed, you'll be missed by me.
You are loved! ❤
My Grandpa, my bio grandma (who I didn’t get a chance to get to know because I couldn’t move on from my past) and my nana (being the most recent like 3 days ago) all died within a year. I wanted to get to know my nana more because she was adopted like me, I wanted to ask advice from my grandpa about work and how he moved on from his dad wanting nothing to do with him… while trying to grieve, my mother told me to continue to work and to not cry because “(dead family member) wouldn’t want me too” and to “take an anxiety med” and to “think about other people and stop making it about me” and she wonders why I don’t talk to her or try to hang out with her
@@ElliottWard-nr7fpyou mean please don’t ever think that you won’t be missed?
I'll leave a light on for you friend,you got this 💗
"The hell in your head will be nothing compared to the person that it couldn't kill" that line is so strong
Hits real deep!
this monsters.. hell.. they are part of me.. person that it couldnt kill? No.. Im afraid.. that I will become this hell... :)
I kept scrolling to find someone who quoted that line. For me, it's the most powerful line. I understand why everyone likes the proud line, but this one gives hope to live until it's time for you to move on from this life instead of letting your thoughts end it sooner.
If you didn’t cry to that line, you’ve likely never been in this place, know what I mean? It is an incredibly hard hitting end to a song that just touches your soul if you’ve ever been there. I’ve been there several times in my life, and came the closest I’ve ever come just two months ago and am still trying to work out of this emotional hole. This band and their songs just speak to me.
👍🏻
I don't know what it is about you guys, but you guys always release the songs I needed to hear when I needed to hear them. You've saved my life many times over the last few years, and I cannot thank you enough.
There good at that yeah
Appreciate you Julie 🫀

Sams
This is like a sequel to “Would Anyone Care” and I am LIVING for it. Thank you for being here for those of us who need it. You guys are absolutely amazing ❤
Honestly I agree with you 💯
Same
I have fallen back into that dark place and its only listening to these songs that have kept me breathing. Thank you Citizen soldier, you and your songs have saved me from my demons time and time again. If it weren't for you, I would have been dead long ago.
Your not alone my friend never forget that. You will always find someone my self included on these comments that will sit with you through your nightmares.
@squirrlefv Thanks, this comment means a lot. Every day is a struggle, but the citizen soldier community makes surviving worth it ❤️
How are you doing now?
@jessiefleming4446 Okay, I might feel better tomorrow, maybe worse? I don't know. My emotions just fluctuate a lot.
@@XxShade_FrostxX i get that
“Cause the hell in your head, will be nothing compared to the person it couldn’t kill”
Such a beautiful way to end an amazing song!!! Most likely going to become my comfort song of choice for the next month
Thank you guys for all of these wonderful songs! Hope everyone has a wonderful day. Stay strong friends. Keep On;
Well said! 🫀
I will thx
I swear, I was close to lose my fight, but this music is keeping me alive. It's like the medicine that the therapists never could, and never can give me. This type of music you give is like a welcoming to a home that many people dream of. The messages you give are those words I needed to hear for my whole life. Thank you for saving my life
I’m proud of you for having the courage to speak up, I’m proud of you for having that inner strength to stand up and tell yourself that you are worthy.
You’re stronger than you give yourself credit for. Stay strong and keep marching forward. You are more than your past, mistakes made, and demons you’ve fought. You have so much more to give.
I am there right now
Having someone who can really relate tell you its okay to feel what you feel, with emotion and not just words, and to just keep trying is...cathartic. The shame and fear from fighting your own mind and hearing someone say "Accept it, but keep going. Just keep going, please."
Quoting from the Stormlight Archive series, but the most important step isn't the first, its the second step. To just keep trying. Things will get better, then worse, then better again. But if you don't keep trying, you won't see those better days. Its okay to fail, to break, to have times when you feel weak and worthless. To pull yourself up and keep going is what's important. Don't let anyone, even yourself, tell you that your problems aren't worth worrying about. Its YOUR fight, your challenges.
Just keep going, please.
I remember when I first found this band, the first song being “Never Good Enough”, I passed it off as a group of people just making songs. I wasn’t a big fan of the kind of music, but I really liked the instrumental.
I always thought everything that others created had a meaning or motive behind it. But for songs, I did not. But then, I received a text from a friend, who I have not talked to in years.
It was a message, thanking me for being by their side and for showing them how much I cared for them..just for listening to them vent and giving some advice and giving them some comfort and support for the things they did. I began to panic, thinking that I was gonna lose them, but then they sent a song by Citizen Soldier called “Found”.
When we saw each other again, we cried as we hugged each other after so long.
This song had me shaking in my chair because of how much I can relate to it. And with how the subtle and small details visually added to the video. I was so close to crying and I was in a family dinner.
If I weren’t to find this band, me and my friend wouldn’t be here, and I’m so glad that we found this band.
You're doing amazing, I'm proud of you for holding on and caring for others while fighting your own demons 💖🙏🏼
This was a really good read this morning. Thank you for sharing your feelings with us. I hope your guy's friendship is going good!
Sometimes, if you can't live for yourself, live for others.
Stronger for somebody else 🫀
I'm only alive today for my daughter and my boyfriend
Exactly! I’m doing this now….🤍
Was going to make my own comment but I saw this and could not have said it better myself!
Well me personally, right now, I have to live for myself and work on myself, like my weight and health. Because I can't keep thinking about when in my life others will care for me. Hopefully my energies I put into myself will attract the right people to my life and I can care and love them equally and they will do the same for me.
I'm literally crying right now... For some people living is a constant fight. And that's tiring.... I'm 33 yearrs old now and still can't believe I've made it this far... thank you guys so much for your music.
It's ok to cry 🫀 Sending hugs
100% me too an same age here
Same here! 33 and amazed to still be here.
29 here, not that far behind you, also wondering how I managed to keep it going as long as I have so far, but still working every day to keep it going, life is exhausting, for some more than others
34 and i feel the same
I live for the day someone says, "I'm proud of you for getting so far."
I'm proud of you for getting so far! 🤘🏾
@naotokamigire-terumi9912 Thank you. That was incredibly kind! I hope to make everyone else proud too. 🙏
@@herrice3227 Drink water!
Im so proud of you. Youve gone so far. ❤
@TowardsTheMoon880 Thank you. 😊 I hope to go even further!
After 10 years of suicidality, i have to say that the biggest reason im stable now is leaving the church.
Leaving religion marked the exact moment my life started improving.
I stopped praying to a god that doesnt exist and focused on fixing my life myself.
Now i can lift 300 lbs, i have a job a car and a lovely girlfriend... and im happy for the first time in my life....
God exist. You will meet him in your life someday.. .. it's not God that was restraining you. It's what the religion became for you.. but I am glad you are happy. You never had to place that burden on your shoulders.. truth seeks you on its own.. 🥰. Have a long , happy and healthy life
I wouldn't throw the baby out with the bath water, but I agree on ditching church, the Bible, the Quran, the what ever....it's a lot better. I did the same, but Im not atheist. Just took my spiritual walk into my own hands.
Waited for this song to release to share with my friend. They're in such a rough place right now and this'll hopefully lift their spirits a little. ❤
Sending hugs to your friend 🫀
Falling
Floating
Or
Flying…
Doing it alone hurts the most when I feel this uncertain about staying but one gave me all the love I never felt worthy of & I feel like I lost them…
The line "how many times have you counted the ways you could end it, cause you are tired of saving yourself" hit hard, I did that a few times when I fell into my darkest times it was mildly terrifying thinking back on it. Beautiful song thank you so much ❤️
Much love 🫀 Glad the music helps friend
Similar situation here, 3 times i were close, like real close. And i feel more are coming, though i am not sure i'll be able to stop one those.
I stopped counting at 10. . .
@@karnetsnk8376 well, of you ever need to talk about anything I would be more then happy to listen. Just try and remember that once today is done you don't need to live through it again cause tomorrow will always differ. You can do this!
@@MrNiccholas yea I can hear you there that's about when I stopped counting too, if you ever want to talk about it I'll be here for you.
Im Not Even An Adult, Yet I Understand The Lyrics, Ive Been In That Place Multipull Times, And Everytime I Was, Your Songs Have Helped Me Through It, Thank You-
Same I’m there rn I just got out but I’m slowly going back in I have ideas and plans but I don’t know how to do them
The first attempt I made on my life was at 8 years old. You aren't alone. When I was 15 I jumped off a bridge but my brother pulled me back by the backpack I was wearing. At 26 I lost my 2nd mom. At 27, I lost my only son. I've lived most of my life on the edge. I'm 34 now and have made it this far. You're going to make it. Take it from someone whose spent most of their life in that space.
I love how all these songs always tell a story while also telling us that it will be worth it to keep going. The little lines like "I'm so proud of you for getting this far," "I'm a stranger at best, but please don't second guess," and "If you're hearing this song its a gift, a reason to live" just make me feel so much better and so much worse at the same time. It makes me cry, but makes me feel like life is worth living. Thank you for telling me and all the others to keep trying. Some of us may not have still been here today without it.
I'm not gonna lie... I started crying to this song within 10 seconds. 'I'm Not Okay' was my personal favourite song for some time, then you just bump it off with this gorgeous piece. Wonderful from start to finish.
It's ok to cry 🫀
Same.
Crying let's you know just how strong you are and have been. So let it out when you feel you can't hold back the tears anymore.
I cried too. All the words in this song hit me hard.
Me too😢
I needed this right now. Sometimes existing is exhausting. Thank you for saying you're proud of all of is, those who are still continuing even when it feels like there isn't a point. You remind us that there is. We're proud of you, too.
Glad this song found you 🫀
@@remonagrubbs9787 To every soul OUT THERE:
All prayers from Righteous SOULS aka Born again Christians, have power. Sinners prayers GOD hears not. Unless we REPENT and born again and LIVE HOLY, GOD hears none of our prayers. Prayers have power, but these must come from Changed hearts.
Proverbs 15:29 The LORD is far from the wicked: but he heareth the prayer of the righteous.
Psalms 119:155 “Salvation is far from the wicked: for they seek not thy statutes.”
(Many souls(unsaved souls), believe falsely and pray in vain).
Mankind is filled with UNSAVED SOULS (WICKED SINNERS).
That`s why there`s a calling to REPENTANCE and to BORN AGAIN:
Luke 5:32
I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
John 3:7
Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.
Luke 13:3
I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.
"Some pain is just too much for words". I feel that in my soul. Thank you for putting words to our feelings.
I'm glad I never ended my life
You are so strong !!
One day i'm healing..
next day i'm breaking again
both days i'm not giving up though
thank you so much for this amazing emotional song! :)
I agree with you my friend. I felt this way too
It's hard to suffer from mental illnesses and not being able to explain.
Amazing song with amazing words.
Impatient to hear song about ocd too❤ 💜
Well said Tina 🫀
I've healed from my mental issues a while ago, I wish I'd found this band sooner. It makes me cry, listening to these lyrics.
I really hope it helps anyone and everyone that is suffering.
Know that you are loved, live on, friends😊
Thanks for support! I am going through tough times with my depression, and music from Citizen Soldier, NF, Ren, Linkin Park and other artists who sing about mental health problems really helps to hold on and step away from the edge sometimes.
This song is truly a gift. I think people rlly need this song. Thank you, Citizen Soldier, for making this song!! Ik it has rlly made my life easier knowing there are others who experience this too. You are a life saver. Keep up the great work! :D P.S: To all of you who think your alone, you aren't! I'm a Christian and I know I'm not alone bc God is with me, and you! He sent a person named Jesus Christ on the cross to save us from the sins we have that make us feel so miserable. He hasn't stopped you from feeling this way, but if you know someone loves you it's all that matters in this dark cold world. Never forget that someone loves you, and I love all of you! Have a blessed day!
Amen!!!!!❤
Thank you so much guys. You've helped me throughout my melancholic ocean, I relate to every word you sing in every song you release 😢❤ I love y'all so much and more support.🤞✨🥺
Same here
Same here I hope your doing well 😉
I don't know if you'll ever read this. Jake, but most of your songs have saved my life and this one is no exception. So if you ever read this, thank you for everything and I'll do my best to keep holding on because of your kind words
Keep holding on friend 🫀 We're in this together
@@CitizenSoldier thank you so much. Ever since my brother died last month, it's been a tough ride, especially with my other brother acting like a jerk. I used to make a little cuts of my arms with my nails. Wanted to do that again but then I remembered pain is only temporary
"I'm so proud of you for getting this far", this hit hard.
Now, the next question is "Can i go further? How far?"
'your not the only one that is feeling like this' a simple sentence but has made me feel more confident and less alone
We can get through this together ❤️
I didn’t know I could click on a video that fast! Thank you I was going to attempt tonight but heard this song and am crying on the floor right now thank you for all you do not just for me for everyone out there who are going thru the same thing I am.

I didnt think i could love a CS song more, this song had me in tears and im not ashamed to admit it, this is by FAR my favorite song of yours, this is absolutely amazing, keep up the outstanding work CS 💙
Much love Jacob 🫀
Thank you so very much for this song. You expressed exactly how I'm feeling at this moment. Over two years of sacrificing all that I had and am to minister to others that need healing, and I've been left on the street with nothing for most of it, facing intensive persecution every day. Your words express exactly what that feels like and I appreciate that you willingly put them out there. God bless you and please keep being real. So tired of fake "Christian" encouragement from those in ivory towers.
I'm sorry for your sacrifices, you are very strong and your life is precious, I wish you good healing! ❤
🤝 Stay strong! You're absolutely amazing! Also loved! ❤
Never give up hope. Life is too precious!
i hate that that's happening, from someone in a hard place aswell keep that faith to know, he will get you through its hard but so worth it ,I'm praying for you, Heavenly father we pray for @LauraCooper-nu1re that she receive the encouragement, that cover every dark thought and you don't let her drift away, but she become even more stronger through the defeats and tough days, even when she feels like giving up speak to her heart lord that it not about what we do but who we are, may she receive a moment of rest to recoup and know why see keeps going and that a smile on her face appear knowing that everything's going be alright and that she remember your God and that means to believe and may receive belief and may psalm 70 wash over her mind body soul and spirit Amen.
keep that belief strong and that prayer life ready you can do it i know you can so is everyone here. Take Care one sister to another
Ive been going through depression and anxiety for 8 years and honestly these beautiful songs have help me out so much and im still here 🥺😭❤️

“How many times have you reached out for anyone’s hand” man that hits hard cause there is no hand there to take
Such a word of encouragement. I had teary eyes listening to this. Thank you. Each comeback, you guys never once disappppint. Love from Indonesia!
Halo bro
Literally laying here bawling. Just turned midnight and is now birthday and I'm feeling the weight of getting older a lot heavier this year. I needed this song. Thank you. So much.
'I'm so proud of you for getting this far' damn i think I needed this.. because it's been just too much and the way the song ended is perfect.
I don't usually write comments but I wanted to thank you for this song. It made me cry after the first sentences and right now it gives me the feeling of safety? I don't know how to explain it but it's nice to know that I'm not the only one fighting. Furthermore I really needed to hear this song right now I guess haha. To everyone who read this far: I wish you the best and please don't forget that you're not alone. I hope you'll get through whatever you're facing right now because even when I don't know you I think you deserve to be happy. I'm happy that you're still alive and I'm proud of you, I really mean it.
Safety is a great word for it! When I think safety I think the feeling of being understood, cared for, and validated especially when we're in a very vulnerable place. 🙂
You're also not alone friend, and I'm proud of you too!
You guys are the reason Im living..
Sending hugs 🫀
I’ve been depressed since 2019. I’ve been on every type of antidepressant, tried every treatment. Nothing has helped.
One of those treatments left me unable to properly ask for help and has only made me try to hide how I really feel. Thank you for writing songs that put into words what I’m going through.
I can’t even find the words of gratitude that I found this song on Instagram last month because I was so damn close to losing my battle and listening to this song on an endless repeat loop is keeping me going right now.
I haven't even listened to over a minute of the song, but it's already amazing ❤️❤️❤️
Good to hear 🫀
Been 2-3 years since Cherry Nightcore introduced me to this channel and it's help me alot.
Glad you did 🫀
Your band, and your music is what’s keeping me alive. This is the lowest I’ve ever been and I’m so grateful there’s songs like this one out there. I hope you realise how many people you’ve helped with your music. Your band is so underrated. Keep making music

I have paranoid schizophrenia. I battle voices daily. This music calms me down. I have there latest one ICU.❤
The first time I heard this song, I almost had a mental breakdown. It really explains how I am feeling based on how I live. Thank you so much this hits home for me. Please keep up the amazing work Citizen Soldier. You rock.
I literally love this song so much already 🥺😭❤️
Glad to hear that 🫀
Every single time i feel urge to end it - you guys release song and push me to not give up on me. I've cried a lot of tears while listening to your songs and this tears were the tears of healing. thank you.
It's ok to cry 🫀
Same thing here. First found them in a rough moment and it saved me. Then other songs comes out at just the proper moment that I need them in my life. Music touches my soul, like it was written about me.
I’m glad somebody finally told me they’re proud of me for getting this far. This band is the only reason I am alive. That is my Reason to live. Cause aside from that my life couldn’t get any darker to put it lightly.
I Didn't know I needed to hear this, but by the tears streaming down my face, my heart needed this. Thank you for creating this song.❤
he estado bastante cansada últimamente, ya casi ni energías para darle buena cara a cada mañana, la negatividad me invade y pierdo las ganas de seguir... Pero ustedes siempre tienen una canción para hablarle a mi tristeza y reconfortarme, esta canción incluso fue casi personal para alguien que siempre está tratando de convencerse de que vale la pena seguir viviendo un día más. Gracias chicos!!! uwu
Espero todo esté llendo lo mejor posible, y decirte que aunque no te conozca de nada estoy segura que de siempre sacarás fuerzas de donde sea, así que te mando muchísimos ánimos y decirte que nunca te rinda y que conseguirás cosas maravillosas uwu
Listened to this with head phones and thought of my hubby, thank you for this beautiful song❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ love y'all🫂🫂🫂
"no tears left for crying" so real
i wont lie, your songs make me break down, and in a strange way i love it. they hit so hard that some days i feel like they were written for the hell that my life has slowly turned into over the years.. and you actually replying to my emails, it means so much to me... i honestly look up to you guys, and have so much respect for you and what your doing...
❤❤❤❤
May the LORD bless you and protect you. May the LORD smile on you and be gracious to you. May the LORD show you his favor and give you his peace
🕊️✝️❤
I listened to this on the way home. I broke down crying in the middle of the street when I heard "I'm proud of you for getting this far". Thank you so much for all the work you're doing, Citizen Soldier. Much love on you all. ❤
Just hearing that "I'm so proud of you for getting this far" had me crying. I didn't know how much I needed to hear that until I did. Thank you so much for all that you do, and the music that you create. It's gotten me through some terrible times, and helped me to hang on to fight another day.
At 30, just finally got diagnistic of autistic syndrom, ADHD, childhood depression, anxiety disorder, neurodivergence, social phobia and PTSD in top of that. Got the whole package......
And your song just hit so hard. Thanks. All thoses years of being misunderstood and brought down for every mistake, mocked for every breakdown... I needed that "I'm proud of you for getting this far"
I am going through a real difficult period of my life right now, and this song saved me. Your words are what I needed to hear. I really mean that.
These Songs hit home so Hard and your ability to write Lyrics and speak to our Wounded Souls is unbelievable. #LongLiveCitizenSoldier
Nothing brings the tears like Citizen Soldier’s heartfelt songs. Just hearing these messages of understanding, hope, and strength from someone like Jake who’s been there and done that already means so much to me. “I’m proud of you for getting this far”, right back at you Jake.
"I know life is hard, but keep going! You nade it this far don't give up! No matter what they say your perfect!" Once a wise person told me this when i was young ❤
❤❤❤❤
May the LORD bless you and protect you. May the LORD smile on you and be gracious to you. May the LORD show you his favor and give you his peace
🕊️✝️❤
I keep coming back to this song but cannot bring myself to sing "so in case you just needed to hear someone say, I'm so proud of you for getting this far." NO ONE has ever said it to me. And this last week death has been playing on my mind. It was the 2 years anniversary of my soulmate dog Kali Bears passing September 24th...and I'm trying to find one GOOD reason to not follow
@ladyhekate91 I’m so sorry for your loss. I’ve been to a similar place before, the pain can feel too terrible for words to begin to describe sometimes. But it’ll get better with time, it won’t always feel as dark as it does now. Your life can still have a potential for joy, even if it seems impossible right now. Please try to hang on to that hope💜
Those last lines hit me in a way I never thought something could. This entire song feels like a sequel to Bedroom Ceiling and I think it’s truly amazing that any of us made it this far. Maybe we’ll make it further. Thank you truly
😢 all i want to do is cry 😭. This is how i feel
It's ok to cry 🫀
@@CitizenSoldier I've been through so much in life I lost a sister in 2021 and I had a aunt that disowned me and every since I've been listening to ur songs to help me get through the day ❤️
Citizen soldier thank you for your music it saved my life and gives me a reason to live even though right now i feel like there's no reason to live😭❤
I don't know how, but this artist manages to convey exactly what I feel. Citizen Soldier us what keeps me going when I feel like there is no one who understands.
Same
You’re saving my life 😭
Glad the music helps 🫀
Idk what to say. Idk what you guys do with a 20 Years old man from poland. I now listened like for the 10th time and from every of each i cried so hard like little kid. Thank YOU.
Much love to Poland 🇵🇱 🫀
I was so close to ending it all today. Its been so hard this last month, its like everytime i manage to get to a better place with a support network, life finds a way to throw me right back to that dark place ive begun to consider home, and hearing "im so proud of you for getting this far." Made me breakdown in tears. Thank you Citizen soldier, for continuing to pull me away from the ledge.
Please know that someone cares. I have been there myself. I still struggle. Reach out to someone.
After going through all of my life full of darkness, suffering and being unwanted, I survived. Even when professionals bring me back after my attempts for me wanting the eternal darkness to end my pain that the only person who keeps me on this planet is my son, I still suffer my dark thoughts but I survive every one and survive every day.
This song makes me so emotional that I can feel stronger, making me believe I will survive longer.
Thank you for your song.
this song is so amazing.
this song hits really close to home. i'd be lying if i said it didn't make me cry.
reminds me of "Found." in some ways. like, the message behind it.
thank you guys so damn much for your music. you have no idea how many people are still alive because of your songs.
I broke down in tears hearing this song... you haven't disappointed in reaching us with your words.
So I turned right crossed the street, still crying. Met 2 young gentleman who listened and the one said, God loves you❤. I blew my nose and got some religious books and courage books. I spent 5 days in the psych ward. ( I checked myself in at the urging of my best friend. Now I'm back at my full-time job and slowly getting my finances in order. Hooked up withrescorces too.
"Cause the hell in your head
Will be nothing compared
To the person that it couldn't kill"
I remember hearing these lines in passing a few weeks ago when randomly listening to Citizen Soldier songs, and it's been stuck in my head since I first heard it. It's just so powerful to me. You are so incredibly strong. You may not see that yet, and that's ok, but you really are. You are so strong that the not even the strongest demons from your hell can kill you. You are a huge mountain compared to the tiny ant known as your pain, and sometimes that's really hard to see. But these lines speak truth, the power of the nightmare in your head is nothing compared to the power you hold. I hope one day all of you will be able to see that. Stay strong, everyone!
Thank you for your words ❤
“I’m so proud of you for getting this far” You guys have no idea how much I needed to hear this. Life right now sucks and The one person I thought cared for me basically told me that he doesn’t love me. My mother passed away three years ago and I needed my dad more than ever but recently, he seemed super focused with his new wife that he’s forgotten about me. And even when i begged for him to tell me if he loved me and still cared for me, he only ignored me. When I told him I’m doing terrible and i have health issues, he only told me to stop making excuses. Idk what i did wrong for him to not love me anymore or not care that I’m trying my best in this life. He only sees me as lazy. So it just means a lot to me to hear someone tell that their proud of me. For so long I feel like i am nothing. A disappointment. Thank you for making me feel important and valid. For making all of us feel important. You guys and your songs truly speak to me and have helped me through so much and still do. I hear to your song endlessly because they truly are a gift. God bless you all so much 🤍🤍✨✨
Been waiting since last night for this! You guys are amazing! Thank you for always making such incredible music!!! ❤❤❤ please like this! And if you leave a comment it would 100% make my day! I love you guys!!!
Appreciate you Rose 🫀
You have no idea how much I've needed to hear songs like this recently.
Even the comment of "I'm so proud of you for getting this far" was just... too much. It's been so long since anyone was proud of me for anything, and hearing it here.... it broke me a little. Thank you for raising my spirits and making this world just a little bit better to be in.
❤❤❤❤
May the LORD bless you and protect you. May the LORD smile on you and be gracious to you. May the LORD show you his favor and give you his peace
🕊️✝️❤
@@lovealways9337 I appreciate the gesture, but I don't believe in god.
As someone who actually has counted the way to "end all the pain" and has cuts on her wrist this song hits really hard, and because every time i need help no one helps its tiring and i want to end it but i stay for my younger siblings to keep them from feeling this pain😅 its a lot of pressure
Haven't listen to it yet, but i know its going to be a banger
Banger alert 🫀
You guys have saved me so many times
Much love Laura 🫀
Lyrics torn from my soul made into reality with your gift. Thank you for this my friend. Beautifully done.
Citizen solder gets me more than my own family and friends. Thank you so much citizen solder. Y'all have literally saved my life. Thank you so much.
❤❤❤❤
May the LORD bless you and protect you. May the LORD smile on you and be gracious to you. May the LORD show you his favor and give you his peace
